Upgrading fixtures on existing vehicles makes it possible to handle new challenges. Here as well, Rosenbauer is acompetent partner. Vehicles are routinely retrofitted with new extinguishing and lighting towers, water monitors, mixing systems, or stowage for storage of new equipment. Rosenbauer can handle conversions as well. Rosenbauer can reorganize and optimize stowage systems with rotating compartments, storage for breathing apparatuses, or sliding trays with a more functional arrangement. Lockers can be custom- converted for new equipment.

CASE STUDY 1 – RESOURCE RECOVERY PDR PRODUCTS THROUGH RYCYCLING PDR has been an established player for material and substance-based recycling and recovery for more than 20 years. Their utmost priorities are resource conservation and sustainability. Based in the town of Thurnau in Upper Franconia, they also work for global players such as HP. As a medium-sized company with a workforce of around 60 employees, they are known for expertise in PU chemicals and handling of hazardous waste. PDR has many years of experience in the treatment of spent PU foam cans. The nation-wide PDR industry solution has become well established in the market. They are proud of a recovery rate of around 80%. These recovered raw materials are returned to the production cycle.

CASE STUDY 2 – RESOURCE RECOVERY TRODAT PRINTERS As the world market leader in stamp products, Trodat sees itself as having a special obligation and has been setting a good example for climate protection for years. Already in 1993, when the Kyoto Protocol was not on everyone's lips yet and the strict Austrian environmental laws were not yet up to date, Trodat set measures for a better use of energy. Approximately 80% of all production waste is recycled, 100% recycling of mechanically unclaimed parts. The original Printy 4.0 is much smaller, lighter than its predecessor and consists of up to 65% * recycled plastic. This saves up to 49% * CO2 Examples of work and further information can be found on the internet following this link http://www.trodat.net/de-DE/uebertrodat/nachhaltigkeit_umwelt/Pages/Wir-tragen- Verantwortung.aspx Project co-funded by European Union funds (ERDF, IPA) MOVECO – Mobilizing Institutional Learning For Better Exploitation of 9 www.interreg-danube.eu/moveco Research and Innovation for the Circular Economy
CASE STUDY 1 – CIRCULAR SUPPLIES FABULA ORGANIC PENCIL The company Fabula C Ltd. Produces pencils that are made of recycled organic waste from coffee, tea and flowers. Fabula calls him the most sustainable pencil in the world. The pencil is not only made from organic waste, its spiky waste also serves as plant nutrients (gentle fertilizer) and it can grow a new plant from the used Fabula pin. If the pen has become too short to write, it must be dissolved in water for two days. The seeds embedded in the end of the pen are released in this way. The solution of seeds and nutrients can then be poured into soil so that a seedling can grow in two to three weeks.

CASE STUDY 2 – CIRCULAR SUPPLIES FEPLO ECO BOARDS Feplo manufactures waterproof ECO boards. This building material consists of pressed parts of recycled beverage cartons, which would otherwise end up in landfills. Not only are these panels 100% ecological, they also meet the very high requirements in terms of dimensional stability, homogeneity and little change in product properties. The numerous advantages of the ECO boards include their excellent workability, low weight, fair price and outstanding thermal insulation properties. Unlike other materials used to make sheets, the ECO boards are waterproof. Therefore, they offer optimal possibilities for use in modern construction - for interior and exterior - and various other applications. This is a big advantage in the market.
